Just wanted the "fishin' song"--very satisfied. Other songs are interesting, I probably should have just paid 99 cents for the "fishin' song."
The first time you hear Brad break into the chorus, you can't help but bust out laughing. "Two Feet of Topsoil" is one of the two so-so attempts on this album, so give it a listen, but don't decide the CD is no good based on that, especially not with what follows.
"Two People Fell In Love" had been released to radio, and I just loved the song. So after "Who Needs Pictures" blew me away, I sat in anticipation for Brad's second album.
Granted, I would rank it #6 on the Paisley Album Countdown, but when they're all good, #6 ain't bad. It was such a feel good song that just made you smile.
So I was first in line to pick up his second album.Well, I'm an avid Brad fan, so he can do no wrong in my mind, but I will definitely say I wasn't as impressed with this one as I was his first CD, HOWEVER, it's still an amazing album. When I first heard "I'm Gonna Miss Her," it started out so soft, but something told me to hold on.
How many guys have ever thought that.Along with his additional hits, "Wrapped Around" and "I Wish You'd Stay," you get some of Brad's best material like the humorous "Come On Over Tonight" (a guy's admission of love), and "All You Really Need Is Love" (the hardcore truth about wedding planning), as well as the amazing collaboration with three country legends, Bill Anderson, George Jones and Buck Owens, on "Too Country."It may not be his best, but it's still better than 99% of what's out there, so pick it up and enjoy.
I loved the fishing song. The only reason this album did not get my customary 5 star rating for Brad Paisley is that it seemed to have a few less songs than his other albums, and not as many that made the radio. As always, he surprised me with some great non-radio songs, and it is definitely still worth the money. However, if you have never heard Brad Paisley before, I would look at some of his other albums to be your first buy.Enjoy.
This is Brad at his best. His new stuff tends to be a little naughty, but his older stuff is funny and creative. I personally think this is one of his best CD's.
With "the fishin' song", now my husband who has never been a country fan is hooked. I've been listening to Brad Paisley for a while and think he's an incredible artist who just keeps getting better. This one is from a few years ago, but is great. Can't wait for the greatest hits - but they are all wonderful.
